Biography

John was born in 1799. He is the son of James Rutledge and Eleanor Ralston. ^[1]

John does not seem to have owned land. The last census I can locate for him shows he is a day labor at age 74.

No more info is currently available for John Rutledge. Can you add to his biography?

Notes

In 1870 Greenbrier, WV, John had a 2 year old Edward Rutledge living with him. Since Margaret was already deceased and would have been 62 at the birth of this child, I think he was a grandson, however, I cannot determine whose child he was. Edward (Hugh) Raulston stays in WV, later dies in Nichols County. His death certificate shows father as unknown Rutledge and his mother as unknown. He is buried in The Zoar Baptist Church Cemetery in Nichols, WV.
